AAAFFFTTTEERRRR TTTHHAAAATTTTT we had a last visit to the suique… suke… suikie? ….. market which was as confusing as ever but pretty cool. when we got back Habib (the most awesome driver ever) gave us little gifts to say thanks and he was pretty upset that we were going SO we all gave him a big Habib hug and then had a BBQ which was nice.

THE END …almost.

Day 11

We went to visit an Omani school for boys.As we arrived there were a big group of children dressed up in army clothes.They werre standing in ttwo rows and as we entered they said a salut to greet us.This was very unusual for me but it made me feel quite special because they went through all the hassle to make us feel welcome.We also met up with the students that we worked with in mosque.TThey showed us some of their art work and it was of very high standard.Most of the work i saw had a theme of drugs running through out.

What i enjoyed most was the small entertainment they had for us in the music department.There were two kids playing a traditional song on the keyboard.This inspired me to get up and show them my stuff! so played I improvised a little something on the keyboard.We then heard a song from an Omani stude

Today we started by going to a girls school which was really nice. Everything was really clean and spacious, the opposite to our school at home hehe. Then we met up with the omani students again at the british council to make 2 murals; one to represet oman and one to represent britain. At first everything was a bit chaoctic and i didnt think it would work well because it was sometimes a bit hard to communicate with the omani students and tell them our ideas but everythinbg seemed to pull together at the end and it looked pretty awesome!! After that we went to see how radhika was doing! she seemed pretty okay..but bored!!(she had to spend the day with jamies bad jokes hehe) Then we decided to go to the Souq to buy some souvenirs and have a look around for some little bits n bobs! After that we had a BBQ in our front gardeny area that Habib cooked for us which was yummy! and thats about it!! I cant believe we only have one day left..that sucks!! im gonna miss it here so much! toodlepip x
